Advents

Now that all the Christmas excitement is over and all the yarn advents have been unwrapped, here are mine: This is a half month/12 day advent my DH gave me for Christmas. It is from Fangirl Fibers, and the theme is Marshmallow World. It is 11 20g. miniskeins and 1 full skein. They aren’t traditional… Continue reading Advents

1.5 inches (and some finishing) to go!

December 26, 2021 quiteayarnblog18 Comments

I’ve got 1 and a half inches to go on the collar, and then binding off, so hopefully it will be done sometime this week! And then of course there’s soaking and blocking, but that won’t take too long. As usual, please excuse the terrible indoor nighttime photographs. Hopefully better ones later this week!

The Sock Clubs of Yesteryear

December 21, 2021 quiteayarnblog27 Comments

Last year I signed up for two different sock clubs. As the second of the two resulting books has arrived, I thought I’d review them briefly. Socks of Iceland by Helene Magnusson Socks of Iceland is a collection of sock pattern inspired by traditional Icelandic textiles. There is a range of techniques, including lace, colorwork,… Continue reading The Sock Clubs of Yesteryear

Advent Minis

December 19, 2021 quiteayarnblog8 Comments

Here is the last 7 days of the Ms. Monster Christmas advent: Even though they aren’t a fade at all, all of this week’s minis have similarities with last week’s. I think when they are all opened, they will work together nicely 🙂 This week, I also started opening my DH’s gift, a half-month miniskein… Continue reading Advent Minis

Arrowhead Cardigan Progress

December 16, 2021 quiteayarnblog22 Comments

I’m finally getting somewhere with my Arrowhead cardigan! The body is finished, and I’m on to the first sleeve. I did run into a snag though. I was not paying a lot of attention to my yarn choice when I started this sweater, and it turns out that both yarns I’m using are superwash. Which… Continue reading Arrowhead Cardigan Progress

Sock It To Me Monday

December 13, 2021 quiteayarnblog12 Comments

DH’s latest pair of socks is done! I didn’t use a pattern really, more just a method. The yarn is some Cloudborn sock yarn left over from when Craftsy used to sell supplies. DH is happy with them and says they fit just right, so I’m happy 🙂 Now I’m taking a bit of a… Continue reading Sock It To Me Monday

Countdown

December 12, 2021 quiteayarnblog12 Comments

Wow! One thing led to another this week, and when I looked up it had been four days since I blogged! Part of the reason is there isn’t much new happening in my knitting life. Same socks for DH and Arrowhead cardigan as the last time I talked about it. I am making progress, but… Continue reading Countdown
